Today’s episode is one of the most tender and hope-filled conversations we’ve ever had.
We sit down with our dear friends Tim and Aileen Challies, who several years ago walked through every parent’s nightmare—the sudden and unexpected loss of their 20-year-old son, Nick.

In this deeply honest conversation, Tim and Aileen share:

• The moment they received the devastating news

• How they clung to what they believed about God when everything collapsed

• The difference between anger at God and being hurt by God’s providence

• How grief affects marriage—and how to survive it together

• What it looks like to “deploy your theology” when tragedy hits

• Practical ways Christians can comfort the grieving

• How the Church became their lifeline

• Why the Christian can truly grieve with hope

• How losing Nick reshaped their understanding of heaven

Tim also shares the gospel with remarkable clarity and compassion, pointing listeners to the only place where true hope in sorrow can be found.

This episode is for anyone who has experienced loss of any kind—or for those who want to understand how to love the grieving well.
We pray this conversation brings comfort, clarity, and hope in Christ.
